Here's some ideas you can consider.

Country Garden

Flying dragonflies, ladybugs and butterflies! These lovely, fanciful creatures act as the central focus in this bedroom theme idea. Probably the best wall color for a bedroom with this theme is a cheerful sunny yellow. Paint a mural with daisies, tulips or buttercups, or add flower posters to the walls. Again, wall decals can be found in all sorts of flower shapes, or go with a lovely garden themed wallpaper border. For your furniture choices, wrought iron or white wicker would add a lovely outdoorsy look to the room. For a special touch, weave a vine of silk flowers through the headboard or around the dresser. You can nail some garden lattice to the wall and weave silk flowers through it, and add stickers or decals of some whimsical dragonflies, ladybugs or butterflies. Bedding should either match the room colors or have a flower garden or bug design on it. For older girls, some real plants would add a realistic feel, or you can add some silk greenery if you don't have a green thumb.

Princesses and Castles

All little girls dream of being a princess, so why not show her some royal treatment with a lovely princess-themed bedroom! If your girl is enchanted with one of the many Disney princesses, then your decorating possibilities are almost endless. There are accessories and bedding for all of the Disney princesses, such as Ariel, Belle, Cinderella, Jasmine and Pocahontas or you may choose a more generic princess theme, without a specific character. Whichever type of princess theme you choose, your wall color will most likely be pink or purple, or even a combination. Add splashes of gold or silver as royal accent colors.

If you're the artistic and creative type, you can paint faux castle walls or a wall mural to add to the royal feeling. If this kind of painting is not in your ability, there are beautiful princess-themed wall appliqués and wallpapers. As with the fairy theme, soft sheer window treatments work best with this decorating theme. Choose white furniture and accent it with gold paint. A canopy bed would be a truly regal centerpiece for this room. Ornate mirrors, princess jewelry boxes, and fancy lighting add the finishing touches.

Forest Fairy

Fairies have been a popular theme for little girls for generations. To make her room a light and airy space that any fairy would love, start with pastel wall colors like sage green or lavender. Add glitter to the paint for a shimmery effect she'll love. You can also continue this theme onto the ceiling by painting a sky with clouds or stars. For the window treatments, you'll want gossamer, sheer fabrics, maybe even with sparkly appliqués. You can drape the fabric as window scarves or valances, or over the bed for a canopied look. Choose fairy themed bedding or just find a comforter in a color that matches your walls or fabrics. A really special addition for a fairy-themed bedroom is to add white Christmas lights around the room - instant twinkling fairy lights! Add fairy wall appliqués, fairy statues and pictures, and soon your girl's room will be a place of enchantment that she'll love to spend time in. Why not take a look at some fun fairy theme childrens beds from Thuka Bedroom Furniture and other kids bed brand names.

Choose one of these decorating themes or find another and spark your girl's imagination by turning her bedroom into a haven where she can relax, explore and go into dreamland.
